I wrote a fat finger type bot and got my first trade/profit.

The odds went from 32 to 44 and back.

Maybe I wont retire just yet.

But at least it did what I told it too.

:lol:

I was trading a Polish match after a goal around the lower 4s and suddenly noticed BA had laid at 12. Panicked, cancelled the bet, then realised the back bet that I placed at 4.5 was matched at 15 with an offset. Luckily, I managed to cancel the offset. :D

Three short-odds non runners taken out this morning. I'd guess someone's bot isn't programmed correctly to check book percentages at times of chaos.

The prices on the graph seem to be adjusted to take account of withdrawals, so this was something else.

eg Masaccio to run in the 14:10 has trades matched down to 1.01 as a result of withdrawals but the graph shows minimum traded is around 1.2.
